2 runs is what I got...Jim got one off and Dan had a clutch pedal on the floor issue.

#1 tried a 3800ish launch with a smooth, but quick clutch release which resulted in a little spin and hop which I quickly pedaled through. I power shifted at approx 6500 ( stock tach ), but it did not seem to like the power shift at times...slight hesitation since I think the flare would hit the limiter. I tried to run out 3rd gear, but just short of the stripe the car nosed over from the limiter.

#2 was about 1 hr after the above mentioned clutch pedal stuck on the floor for Dan I decided to try it again. The hood stayed shut for the time it was sitting and the clutch still had a horrible smell. I worked the car through staging for about an hr and then finally got the second run. I came out at approx 3200 ( worried about clutch ) with a quick, but smooth clutch release again and had just a touch of spin/hop and stayed in it. The run felt good here...did not power shift 1-2 and shifted about 6200 on all gears + pulled 4th this time.

We really feel a gear or shorter tire would really help the car work well both on the front and back of the track

so we are very happy with the car considering lack of time last night to get a feel for the car. We will get back out and work the ET some very soon.

Yeah you could do a whole lot better. Not bad though. Hell the Hennessey with the same charger, drag radials, intake, and exhaust runs an 11.67 @ 121mph. Kepp it up you'll get that suck deep in the 11's

Proud owner of a 2005 srt-4 on less boost and heat soaked put down 372whp and 395wtq. Building my 1973 celica hopefully running before police academy starts. Can't wait to own a new car off the lot. Looking into the 1lz

Well the air wasn't great. high humidity. we were fighting traction all night. heel hop didn't seem to be as much of an issue with the shorter rear tires vs the 28" tall d.r.'s we ran before.

The mph shows decent improvement in the humid air, but the e.t. wasn't matching up with the mph no matter what we tried.

best two runs of the night were as follows:

me driving:

60' - 1.84
1/8 mph - 96.69
1/4 et - 11.72
1/4 mph - 122.59

Larry driving:

60' - 1.88
1/8 mph - 97.27
1/4 e.t. - 11.70
1/4 mph - 122.43

we got to the track after 2 hours of driving, paid, got through tech right away and only had a half hour cool down. that was the longest the car sat to cool the whole night. there were no super long cool downs, no icing the blower, or any of that non-sense. i even hot lapped the car a couple times as i was trying to just get a feel for the car as i had not even sat in the thing until that night. ha.

the wheels we are using are repro 18" C6 Z06 wheels, with a 315/35 drag radial. we did have to cut the cables to the E-brake so they would fit.
